Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Commerce users.  We do expect that
  many customers will have resolved this previously by updating
  their JSPs.
  
  PROBLEM ABSTRACT: In WebSphere Commerce Accelerator JSPs there
  are some hardcoded date options that will be invalid after
  several years.
  
  BUSINESS IMPACT: It will impact two scenarios:
  
  1. Place an order or edit an order in Accelerator, in the
  payment method page.  When you select some payment method (like
  Visa credit card), the corresponding payment method information
  page will display to let CSR input shopper's payment information
  (card number, valid date etc.)
  
  2. Create a RMA (return) or edit a RMA in accelerator, similar
  to scenario1, but this time it is in the refund method page.
  
  RECOMMENDATION: The fix LI73841 will replace the JSPs in the
  WebSphere Commerce Accelerator tool.  If you have not cutomized
  any of the JSPs then we recommend simply applying the LI73841.
  
  If you have customized these JSPs then the customizations will
  be overwritten if you install LI73841.  You can take one of the
  following two approaches
  - simply update the dates in the listed JSPs and redeploy them.
  Do no apply LI73841.
  - apply LI73841.  Your customizations will need to be
  reimplemented and then the udpated JSPs redeployed.
  

Problem conclusion

• The issue can be resolved either by customizing and redeploying
  the JSPs, or by applying LI73841.
